Meaning of the baby name HEIMIRICH.

Where
Heimirich first began does not appear, but it sprung into fame with the
Saxon emperor called the Fowler, and his descendant won the honours of a
saint, whence this became a special favourite in Germany, where it was
borne by six emperors, by princes innumerable, and by so many others
that the contraction Heintz
had already passed to cats when Reinecke Fuchs was written. (History
of Christian Names, Yonge, 1884)
